Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming numerous industries, and space exploration is no exception. As we venture deeper into the cosmos, AI becomes more critical in overcoming the challenges of long communication lags, handling massive datasets, and enabling autonomous robotic planetary exploration systems.| AZoQuantum
Soliton water waves can travel several kilometers without any significant change in their shape or amplitude, as opposed to normal waves, which widen as they travel, and eventually disappear. Discovered over 150 years ago in water canals, solitons represent a surprising phenomenon of wave propagation and have been observed in natural phenomena including moving sand dunes and space plasmas.| AZoQuantum
